Akimbo, the lucky thing, lives in a part of Africa in which there are still a great many wild animals. In fact, he lives on a game reserve, where his father is the head ranger. Akimbo loves animals and loves to find out about them and work with them even more. This love of his land's fauna leads him into all sorts of adventures. In ''Akimbo and the Snakes'', our intrepid young naturalist goes to stay with Uncle Peter, who has a snake farm. The snake farm has puff adders, banded cobras, king cobras, boa constrictors and even a black mamba. Uncle Peter's ambition is to find a deadly green mamba for the park.
